The 19th Century Eiffel Tower is one of the most recognized landmarks in the world.Also known in French as 'Tour Eiffel' it is the tallest building in Paris, and the most visited tourist attraction in the world.
The tower's height is 1,063 foot tall, and is made from 10,000 tonnes of steel.
Creator Gustave Eiffel originally made the tower to be an entrance arch for the World's Fair back in 1889, and named it after himself.
There are 3 access levels for tourists. You can get to the first level by walking up 300 steps! Or if you want to venture a little higher you can walk a further 300 steps to the 2nd floor, or take a lift to the 3rd.
Surprisingly level 1 and 2 have restaurants, although you wouldn't be able to tell that by looking at the picture alone.
The interesting monument that looks quite plain and basic in the day can be see below lit up magnificently at night time.
No wonder many say Paris is the most romantic place in the world
